No your not - your encouraging Chris to have some stretch on the rear !!!

 

Andy, they are stretched on the rear now, that's why I want the correct size,,lol

Stretched is pretty much the only choice for an 18x12 though, even a 295 will look quite stretched. Going to need some pretty tough arches to fit that much wheel under too!

Got a wide arch? They'll NEVER fit on a standard Z.

Rears I'd go for much larger than 295. My rears are 285 and I have 9.5" wheel on the back of mine. 12", I'd go for 335.

Si is that with no mods on the body cas im thinking ill go for 275 and my rears are 10 inch .sorry to but in.

Yup. I've rolled the arch lips now, but that was to increase the offset and it's that that can become crucial; what spec are your wheels?

dont know just know there 18 and i measured the rears 10 inch across. ive put 235 on the front 9 inch and they look ok i was or maybe still put 265 on the rear but im thinking prob 275 cas there cheaper and will prob fit.

It's ESSENTIAL you know the offset; even with skinny tyres, they may not fit. It'll be stamped on the hub facing surface or on the inside of a spoke. It'll likely have 'ET' written before it.

All round? Not a staggered fitment? 8J for the rear is narrower than stock UK rear wheels.

Which means 365 or 275 or both

Well i used to have on them running 235 40 18 on the 9 inch front and 265 35 18 running on the 10 inch rear and car seemed to like that set up and from what i remember was a comfortable ride with no tramming or anything so might do that again oh and i think it said made in china or more lickly japan. Look nice thou.
